dc.description.abstract

Because of the flooding experience throughout central Europe in August 2002 the European Commission started the development and pre-operational testing of a European Flood Alert System (EFAS). The Danube has been selected as one of the pilot catchments. It is a very challenging river basin in the sense that is one of the biggest catchments in Europe with about 800.000 km2 and sharing with 18 countries. The contribution presents the current state of development of EFAS with emphasis on the Danube catchment, explains necessary steps in data processing and preparation for the modelling, and shows calibration and validation results.
